In manpage-l10n we always download the man pages available from the
various distributions, create po files from them and use these as
basis for the translation. So we actually don't know in general how
the man page was generated: From help2man, written in groff/nroff, in
docbook, markdown, pod, ..
Simply put: We don't have the source available.
